I spent the first half of March focusing on improving my lathering and MM24 techniques so in order to minimize variables I kept the soap base constant. It's now time to test my technique improvements on different soap bases, and the Elite Eight matchups provide the ideal opportunity to do so.
This is a heart vs head choice. Logically speaking B&M should get my nod since it's the second highest number of tubs (after Stirling) in my stash, and a number of their scents would be great choices as desert island soaps. Instead, I went with my heart and today's vote goes to Southern Witchcrafts. Happy shaving and have a wonderful day.
